That strikes me as something that falls under the heading of "makes me a more accomplished human" in a general sense, but without a clear path to value. Confidence could lead to better career outcomes, but it could also lead to snake oil sales.

It depends on ultimately it's a double-edged sword which you can use it for good or for bad it comes down to the intention and ethics of the person using it.

If I were to use it I always search for it to be good, but as the saying goes hell is paved with good intentions.
